Clarity: Living in More Light
Meditation by Orin and DaBen

I invite clarity into my life.
I call light to myself and
imagine myself surrounded
in a cocoon of clear light.

I observe the quality of the light
that surrounds me.
As I observe it,
the light around me grows even more beautiful.
It becomes clearer  and finer,
taking on a sparkling,
diamond-like quality.

I allow this light to blend with me,
transforming my consciousness as it does.
My mind is becoming clearer,
like a clear mountain lake
that reflects the sun above.

My mind now reflects
my higher mind.  
I allow myself to see
the bigger picture of my life.
I receive insights
about my path and purpose
and I recognize them
when they come into my mind.

I now open to see and know more
about my soul's purpose.
I surrender my personality goals
to my soul's goals for my life.

I embrace my soul.
I affirm that I will create my soul's purpose
for being on earth.

I create clarity and live in more light
by getting clear on my purpose.
I draw knowledge of my soul's purpose
into my mind.
Every day my higher purpose is becoming
clearer and more visible to me.

I create clarity and live in more light
by getting clear on my intent.
I now say to myself,
"I intend to live my soul's higher purpose."
"I now know what my higher purpose is."
As I say these words,
I draw even more clarity into my life
about my higher purpose and my next steps.

I gain more clarity and light
by getting clear on my motivation.
I am motivated to act on my insights
about my higher purpose.
As I take the steps that are in front of me,
my next steps become even clearer and
more visible to me.

I am clear that I want to create
my higher purpose.
I know that as I live my purpose
I will do so by following my heart and my joy,
and by living the life I am meant to live.

Clarity radiates from me.
I am clear about my life,
my path,
And my purpose.

My mind and thoughts
are clear and focused.  
They reflect my soul's thoughts
And higher mind.

My clarity creates more light around me.
I live in the clear light of my soul.
I am a clear, radiant light.

The Allowing Factor - 8/25/07

“It is not what you eat, but how you feel when you eat it.”
“It is not what you say, but how you feel when you say it.”
“It is not what you do, but how you feel when you do it.”
Abraham

In listening to the latest monthly Abraham tape, these words stood out to me. Again, more support in our practice of knowing that we are infinite beings and not subject to our limiting beliefs.  Change your belief ( which alters your vibration and your feelings), and you change your experience.  Change your perspective, and receive an entirely different morphic field in which to play.
 

Choose to experience the UNLIMITED BEING that you are!

Holding It All... My Birthday Celebration - 8/22/07

Abraham tells us to remember to be grateful, A Course in Miracles reminds us to forgive, our non-dual teachers remind us to drop into the silence of the moment, and our loving teachers throughout time, remind us that we are LOVE.   

4 generations of love
 

Four of my family members were able to come and join me for my birthday...we really had a great time playing, eating, cruising the lake in the rain, eating, riding a kiddy train through the River Park in Spokane, eating, taking a gondola over a water falls, eating, getting massages, eating, dancing, eating, laughing, eating and loving deeply.  We were totally immersed in the delightful senses of this time and space reality...... when wouldn’t you know it, Lisa brings it all back to an expanded reality with the following writing:
 

A birthday wish (knowing there is truly no birthday)
of Big dissolving, no more longing,
landing in the nebulous now
with no particular place to go
as Love,
One roams without moving in the endless canvas of consciousness.
Love for Self as Self
 

HAVE FUN PLAYING WITH IT ALL!
 

I am grateful!!!!!!!!
 

Blessings~~~Cynthia
 

 
Unconditional Love Meditation by Orin and DaBen - 8/19/07

Enjoy your life where ever you are!

Unconditional Love
Meditation by Orin and DaBen

I relax and take a deep breath in,
letting relaxation and light
spread throughout my body.

I open to receive light.
I breathe in the light of my soul.
I expand in the light of the Spiritual Sun.
I grow strong in the light
the Enlightened Ones
are always holding around me.

I breathe this light
into my heart center,
located in an area around my heart.
My heart center is like a flower
that opens in the light of love.

I imagine my soul standing in front of me
like a radiant angel
surrounding me with its light and love.

As I receive my soul's love for me,
the flower in my heart center
opens even more.
Love radiates from me--
gentle, soft, soul love.

I think of someone in my life
who could use my love.

As I picture this person,
unconditional love flows out
from my heart center,
surrounding this person with light and love.
I radiate unconditional love to this person,
a love that needs
nothing in return.

I release the need to save this person,
or to take away his or her lessons.
I radiate unconditional love,
knowing that this person has
all he or she needs within
to be happy and to have a good life.

As I radiate my unconditional love
to this person
I accept him or her without reservation.
I affirm that this person is as strong as I am
and that this person's soul
is watching over him or her.

Any barriers between us
dissolve in the light of love.
The flower in my heart center is opening.
I am filled with love.

I radiate love to my loved ones.

I radiate love to all of humanity.

I radiate love to the animal kingdom.

I radiate love to the plant kingdom.

Today I find every opportunity
to radiate unconditional love to others,
a love that needs nothing in return.

I give generously of my love.

We made it all up... 8/18/07

What does an infinite being look like... you choose...
we made it all up anyway.  Have FUN!

“I am an infinite being and I am not subject to this... Illusion/belief”
David Hawkins

I so appreciate the power and assistance that is there at all times.  As I have moved through my life (or it appears to be that way), what I have needed is available and shows up in exciting and magical ways.  Many, many years ago in doing a sacred journey I got clearly that “we made it all up”.  At that time it was clear, and yet I was not ready to be that knowing.  It has taken me many (apparent) years to get to where I am now.

 Several weeks ago Lisa and I took PART 1 of the Matrix Energetic training in San Francisco.  During the training Richard Bartlett who also affirmed that none of this is real, mentioned the book Busting Loose from the Money Game by Robert Scheinfeld.  A week or so later when presenting at an Ions meeting in California, I was talking to my friend Terry Faulkner.  I was sharing a little about the Matrix training, when Terry with excitement started sharing with me her progress in working with some of David Hawkins (who from my perspective has become an awakened being) work.  She said she would be sending me a gift of his DVD on healing.

Before leaving the LA area I was finally able to locate a copy of Busting Loose.  I couldn’t put down.  With great excitement I felt that I found someone  that put it all together and created a practice that not only could bust loose the money game...but the entire illusion.  I was getting ready to re-read the book, as I was (and still am) in the process of successfully “draining eggs”, when the David Hawkins, DVD from Terry arrived.   Scheinfeld approaches the busting of the illusions with examples around money... Hawkins approaches the busting of illusions with his own stories around health.

IT IS TIME!  NO MORE VICTIM, NO MORE ILLUSIONS.  As A Course In Miracles says...we entered a dream and have not awakened.  The awakening is here and we get to claim our power and choose (with awareness) the games/dreams we wish to play.  We may choose to play the same games, but without suffering and pretending that we didn’t create it all!

I strongly suggest that you (which is me) check out the Busting Loose...book.  And it is alright if you continue to want to play (for a bit longer) the game of forgetting.  You choose!  I am currently choosing to play the game of helping others (all me), to remember...although we have always known.  Oh what fun!  From this point forward...I suspect I will forget, remember, forget, remember, forget, remember....and often not make sense at all.  
 

Check it out... join me in busting loose!

Blessings~~~~~~~~Cynthia

 
ONENESS MEDITATION by Orin and DaBen - 8/13/07

Oneness
Meditation by Orin and DaBen

I relax my body,
putting my arms and legs
into a comfortable position.
I relax the muscles around my eyes,
mouth, and jaw.

I take a breath in
and feel myself becoming
centered and calm.
As I grow calm within,
I begin to sense the world around me.

I send my inner awareness
out into the room or space I am in.
I sense the people around me.
I sense the animals in my area,
and become aware of all the plants.
I am expanding my consciousness.

within each life form I contact.
I imagine sparkling, divine light
radiating from all the life about me.
As I do this,
I connect with the divinity within myself.
I see/sense/feel the sparkling seeds of
divinity within me.

I notice that the seeds of divinity within me,
send out lines of light
that connect with the seeds of divinity
in all life forms around me.
I can sense this inner connection
as divine love and light flows
into and out of me,
connecting me to the goodness, love,
and higher energies all about me.
The seeds of my divinity are awakening.

I think of my family
and imagine love flowing out from me
to their hearts.
I receive the love that flows back to me
from their hearts.
I picture my friends and co-workers.
I send them love, light, and good wishes.
I receive back the love and light they send me.

I think of my neighbors.
I send them blessings and wishes
for a wonderful life.
I sense my community and city
I connect with everyone in my country
Each time I connect with others
I sense people lighting up with this contact.
My light increases the light all about me.

My sense of oneness grows.
I focus on what I have
in common with humanity.
I find unity in diversity.
I focus on what I have in common
with others
and accept the differences.
The seeds of divinity within me are
becoming brighter.

I connect with the seeds of divinity
in the animal kingdom,

and in the mineral kingdom.
Divine light and love
connect me with all life on earth.
My own divinity is enhanced
as I now connect with the divine light in all life.
The seeds of divinity within me
are sending out beautiful notes and colors.

I move into the soul plane.
I am one with all souls.  
I am radiating love and light to all souls.
The seeds of divinity with me
are growing radiant with soul love and light.

I think of the Masters,
Angels, and Enlightened Ones.
I send light and love to them,
feeling my connection to them.
I receive their transmission
of divine love and light back.
The seeds of divinity within me are opening.

I feel my oneness with God/Goddess/All that is.
I am aware of the web of life of which I am a part.
I feel light and love flowing out from me
and light and love coming back to me.

I am one with all life.
The seeds of divinity within me are flowering
and pollinating the seeds of divinity
within all life.

Are You a Doing, Doing, Doing machine? - 8/13/07

I take a deep, easy breath in.
I imagine myself growing calmer.
My mind is clear and alert.
I put down any burdens I have been carrying.
My shoulders feel lighter.
(from Sunday’s meditation by Orin and DaBen)
 

I captured this picture last year in Spokane.  It reminds me of the times when I take on more than is comfortable. Like the child that is squirming, another child being bored, a few impatient, others not quite being satisfied...I see these as parts of myself that get neglected when I schedule or feel obligated to do more than what serves my essence.

In my town of Sandpoint Idaho, we have been enjoying our 25th year of a music festival with a line up of eight evenings with a variety of music from classical to rock and roll. For an example last weekend we enjoyed Lyle Lovett and tonight is Madeleine Peyroux.  Each year I purchase the season tickets and can feel “obligated” to attend all the performances (so I don’t miss out on the FUN).  After attending the concert on Thursday, I came home and recognized that I just needed some alone, and quiet time.  I choose to not attend the performance last night and just BE alone with myself moving forward moment to moment.  Fun to watch my process.  

How easily do you allow yourself to “put down your burdens” (could be fun) and choose again?  My experience is that when we schedule, schedule, schedule, that we can become like a “machine”...doing, doing, doing without a lot of presence.  Today, I encourage you to become quiet, relax your mind, emotions and body, and tune in and listen to what you are needing.  Have the courage to put down your burdens and feel lighter.

 

Blessings~~~~Cynthia
 

Wisdom meditation... Orin DaBen - 8/5/07

Tap into the wisdom that surrounds us
(Picture taken on Hwy 1 on the coast of California)

Wisdom
Meditation by Orin and DaBen

I take a deep, easy breath in.
I imagine myself growing calmer.
My mind is clear and alert.
I put down any burdens I have been carrying.
My shoulders feel lighter.

I ask my higher self to join me.
It comes to me and showers me with love.
My heart center grows radiant
with the love of my higher self.

Love flows out from my heart
to everyone around me.
My capacity for compassion and love
for myself and others is growing.

My higher self stimulates my
third eye, located in an area
between my eyebrows.
I begin to see life through
the loving, wise eyes of my
higher self and soul.

My higher self sends energy down
into my head center.
I blend my mind
with the mind of my higher self
simply by imagining that I am doing so.
The wisdom of my higher self
flows into my mind and thoughts.

I link my heart center,
my third eye, and my head center.
I awaken to my inner wisdom.
I open to see through the eyes of wisdom.
I feel through the love of wisdom

With this gift of wisdom
I am aware of my truth.
I am my own authority.
I know what is best
for me and my life.
I go by the wisdom of my true self
in how I live my life.

I think of an area
where I have turned my authority
over to another.
I now follow and trust
my own wisdom in this area.

As I look through the wise eyes
of my higher self
I open to see
the larger picture of my life.

I trust that everything that happens
is for my higher good,
even if I don't always understand why
at the time.

I pick a situation in my life to look at
through the eyes of my higher self.

With this expanded vision,
I am able to see some of the good
that is coming
out of this situation and
the soul qualities
this situation is developing in me.

I act from wisdom.
I stop,
take time to reflect,
and reach upward
to my higher self for direction.

I know that what I create in this way
comes from a wiser, higher
part of myself
and will bring me my higher good.

As I blend my mind
with the mind of my higher self,
I know what is important in my life
and what is not.

I focus my time and energy
on the areas of my life
where there is light and joy,
and thus increase those experiences in my life.

I am wise about where I put my time.
I now put my time and energy
into people and
projects that are on my path.

The activities I do
contribute to my sense of well-being.
I now bring something new into my life
that adds to my self of well-being.

I stop putting my energy and time
into those things
that are not on my path
and that take away from my sense of aliveness.

I spend time with people with whom
I feel loved, nurtured, and uplifted.
I live in a loving,
supportive environment.
I radiate love to everyone.

I am growing wiser everyday.
I am linked
with the mind of my higher self,
and the connection
is growing stronger everyday.

Changing Perspectives - 8/2/07

Picture taken last week flying out of Denver

Change your perspective and all your experiences change with it.
 

At the workshop in Southern California last Sunday I choose to play with changing of perspectives.  Over 20 people had fun exploring how life can dramatically be altered in a simple change of perspective.  When one changes perspectives one attracts a new morphic field which brings with it different information and different experiences.  

NOTICE

Slow down enough to really feel into the moment.  Notice your emotions, the activity in your brain, your breath, how you are holding your body.  Scan your  body as you contemplate each of the following perspectives.

Notice, how with every new perspective a whole new field is present and working with you.

What kinds of information are we likely to collect in each of these perspective?  How does YOUR body/field respond to each perspective?
 

Here is a list of some of the perspectives that we played with.
 

#1.The world is in chaos, there is danger and I must be alert and defensive .

((Change of Perspective)

The world is expanding in new, powerful ways...and there are new and beautiful opportunities every day.  

#2 Our bodies grow old and we must be careful in what we eat, that we continue to exercise and be aware of the toxins that are taken in and the diseases that are threatening.

(Change of Perspective)

Our bodies are always moving into balance and giving us signals of what to eat, when to sleep, how to keep strong and flexible.

#3 In order to be successful one must work hard, know the right people, say the right things, and be the best in the field.

(Change of Perspective)

Success comes from following one’s bliss.

#4 Relationships are difficult and one must compromise in order for the relationship to work.

(Change of Perspective)

Diversity in relationships brings aliveness and expansion to each individual. We are ALWAYS being inspired to LOVE

#5  To love one’s self, one must work hard, not make mistakes, always be kind and loving.

(Change of Perspective)

Love of self easily comes to one, when slowing down the mind and honoring the moment to moment listening.

#6 There should be no war.

(Change of Perspective)

Man uses many ways to come back home to wholeness.

#7  It is my responsibility to educate people to a more peaceful way of living.

(Change of Perspective)

As I see the God/love in others and be an example or mirror, others can relax into the truth of who they already are. In that relaxation a connection is  made. I am inspired in each new moment to action.
 

What is happening in your life that you might want to change the perspective?
What perspective are you wanting to experience?
    Intend the perspective and step into the field.

Blessings~~~~Cynthia

 
 
Knowing the Wisdom of the Heart... Orin DaBen - 7/29/07

Love:
Knowing the Wisdom of the Heart
Meditation by Orin and DaBen

As I breathe in,
I breathe in love.
I draw in love
from everywhere in the universe.

Love flows in through my breath.
Love flows in to every part of my body
carried on my breath.
I open to receive love.

My capacity for love is expanding.
Every day I am becoming
a more loving person.
I am growing calmer and more serene
in the peace of love
that is becoming who I am.

I forgive myself
knowing that I have always done
the best I knew how at the time.
I send love and forgiveness to my past self.
As I do, I create a higher future for myself.

I acknowledge how far I have come
and how much I have grown
in my ability to act with
wisdom and love.

I now choose to experience
love and peace.
I allow people to be who they are.
I offer love with wisdom.

I put down the burdens of others,
knowing they are not mine to carry.
I allow others to go through their lessons.
I hold a loving space while they do.
I let go of the need to save others
from the wonderful growth opportunities
they have attracted to themselves.

I think of someone
whose burdens I might have been carrying.
I now turn the responsibility
for this person's life
over to this person's higher self.
I send love to this person as I do.

I let go of wanting or
needing anything from people.
I focus on how I can serve
and empower them in their growth.
I release my desires for them to
be or do anything to please me.
I offer unconditional love.

I think of someone I love.
I release a desire I have had of this person
to be or do something I want.
I send this person appreciation
for all of his or her beautiful qualities.
I love and accept this person
just as he or she is.

I think of this person and ask myself,
"How can I offer more love
to this person?
How can I express my love in
a higher, wiser way?"
I let answers and feelings flow into me.
I act on the insights as they come.

I invite the Divine Angels of Love
into my life and heart.
I ask them to open my heart
and link it with my mind so I can
love with wisdom.

An angel of love joins me now.
This angel touches my heart with love.
I receive and open to this gift of love.

I let a thought of someone
who could use love
come into my mind.

I get silent for a moment
and imagine sending this person love.
I surround this person with a rose color
that carries the angelic frequencies of love.

I fill my heart with Divine Love
transmitted to me by the Divine Angels of Love.
I send Divine Love to this person.
The Angels of Divine Love join me in
sending Divine love to this person.

I now think of everyone I know
standing in a circle around me.
I am in the center of the circle.
I fill myself with Divine Love.
The Angels of Divine Love are with me
sending their love through me.
I send this love out to everyone I know.

Divine love flows through me
and out to the world.
I am a radiating source of love and wisdom.

I ask now for anything that is not
for my higher good
to release itself from me.
You have a sense of what this is...

represents my higher good
to come to me now.
Allow yourself to receive...
be courageous and walk into the unknown!

Embracing the New... Meditation by Orin and DaBen - 7/22/07

Embracing the New
Meditation by Orin and DaBen

I pay attention to all the energy
about me right now.
I feel the surface I am sitting or lying on.

when it is no longer part
of my path and purpose.

I am willing to see the world in new ways.

and remain open to new perspectives.

like a child.

and that it is always working
FOR me and WITH me.

I release all my limits
and embrace the new.

I know that every day I am becoming
a more beautiful and perfect light.

Just Let It All Go! - 7/18/07

Picture taken looking on white sand beach...
where we climbed down to explore

Attempting to hold onto, or resist what is happening
prevents the multi dimensional NOW.
 

Last week Lisa and I were ushered into one exquisite moment after another.  The old tendency was to enjoy “the something " sooooo much that we would imagine in our minds how we could hang onto it, reproduce it, etc... .Instead... We kept practicing letting go, and as a result were moved again and again to one magical experience after another.

After a day of magic we were driving away from the beaches and found ourselves confused as to the direction we were to go.  In the past Lisa met the same intersection and had made a choice that created extra time and miles of driving.  She wanted to avoid the same mistake.  Well wouldn’t you know it.  I chose the same “undesired” path.  What transpired was magical.

Turn around?  Keep going?  Being caught in traffic without the option of turning around, Lisa so gracefully (owning her process out loud ) compassionately shared the potential of her negative stream of old thoughts regarding my choice (attack, punishment, make wrong, etc., etc..).   In the mean time I gracefully held my innocence and didn’t need to defend, feel guilty or wrong.  It was magical.

Earlier in the day we were inspired to let go, let go of the beauty...later we were being inspired to let go of the defenses and grievances.   Both experiences of letting go allowed a collapse into the NOW.  Both afforded us peace, refreshment and LOVE!
 

Just let it all go...

Blessings~~~Cynthia
